Start your day with a pleasant melon meal.

Chu Wu finished laughing, and did not forget to advise: [Keep the melon of the household servant to keep ordering, there must be a follow-up. 】

System: [I think too!] 】

Tobe Squire: "......, really, please change a sheep!"

With a faint smile, the emperor and the officials began to discuss state affairs today.

In view of the unexpected fall of the Hubu Shangshu, they discovered a new use of Chu Wu and the system: to find corrupt officials.

Knowing that the melons excavated by the system are so accurate and effective, why should they bother to find other ways to fill the treasury? Wouldn't it be okay to copy a few more greedy ones? It's much quicker and easier than digging up the treasures of the previous dynasty.

Jin Yiwei commanded Lin You to present the evidence of corruption in the upper household department, "Yuan Wei, the former secretary of the household department, has been in office for five years, and he has used his position to extort officials from all over the country, and in three years, he has embezzled two million taels of silver as high as five million, and now only less than two million taels of stolen money have been copied from his house, and the remaining three million taels are missing. ”

The system was taken aback: [Five million? This is too greedy! 】

Emperor, Hundred Officials: It's coming, it's coming! If there is a system, we will definitely be able to dig out where the three million taels went!

Chu Wu's tone was flat: [A Qing prefect, 100,000 snowflakes of silver. The prefect of the fourth product is in charge of the decree of the government, and he can be greedy so much for three years, and the head of the household department is a member of the third product, and he is in charge of the entire Dasheng's finances, and the household registration, taxes, and military expenses have all been in his hands, not to mention five million, it is not surprising that he is greedy for 50 million. 】

The emperor and the hundred officials were silent, and the commander of the Jinyi Guard, who counted all kinds of crimes, was stunned for a moment, and continued: "Yuan Wei confessed to his charges of extortion and corruption......

The system can't figure it out: [This is in charge of a country's finances, and it must be a person who the emperor trusts extremely much to hold such an important position. Before the blackmail and embezzlement, he never thought about what would happen to him if this matter was discovered? 】

This is also where the emperor and the hundred officials can't figure it out.

Yuan Wei's personality is not unknown to them, why does he need so many silver taels to be willing to take risks to do such a thing?

Chu Wu sensed that something was wrong: [System, you go and take a look, there may be a big melon in it. 】

The emperor's eyes narrowed slightly, and Chen Jiu hurriedly said, "Take Yuan Wei." ”

At the sound of an order, Yuan Wei, who was waiting in the side hall, was taken to the court, dressed in white prison clothes, with red eyes and messy hair.

A day ago, he was still the third rank of the Dasheng Dynasty, deeply trusted by the emperor, chatting and laughing with the first and second rank officials, and was complimented and praised by his colleagues, and a day later, he became a prisoner kneeling in front of all his colleagues, and a eunuch could look down on him from above and despise him, and his status was very different.

Yuan Wei didn't know what he had experienced in Jinyiwei, and he was very depressed.

The emperor sat on the high platform and asked in a cold voice: "Yuan Wei, I have high hopes for you by giving you the position of the head of the household department, why do you want to live up to my trust?" ”

Yuan Wei raised his hands high and knelt on the ground: "If you miss a thought and live up to the emperor's trust, you deserve death." This incident arose because of the guilty minister, and he also asked the emperor to be lenient and spare the innocent family members of the guilty minister. ”

In the end, he has been a colleague in the court for so many years, Yuan Wei is bent on death, only for his family, and many officials are moved.

The emperor thought of Yuan Wei's exploits over the years, and his heart was slightly relieved, this matter really did not affect his family.

"I ...... Quasi"

The word "quasi" came out, and Yuan Wei's breath was just a little relieved, and the system suddenly appeared: [Sister Wu, I'm back with a big melon! ] 】

The emperor's attention was suddenly diverted, what big melon?

The officials had a bad premonition, and Yuan Wei's eyes gradually became wrong, and the system seemed to be digging Yuan Wei's melon?

Yuan Wei's eyes straightened, he was already like this, and the system still refused to let him go?

Chu Wan: [Let me guess. 】

System: [Okay.] 】

Chu Wu: [The Dasheng Dynasty clearly stipulated: If the amount of silver obtained by accepting bribes, soliciting bribes, or embezzling exceeds 200 taels, the death penalty shall be given. It seems that the law is strict, but the emperors of the Dasheng Dynasty paid officials half more than the previous dynasty, and also allowed individual officials who were struggling to borrow from the treasury. 】

The old men in their fifties almost cried in front of the court.

Please, forget me! Won't I be able to wear the underwear in the future? Wouldn't it be okay if I wasn't so frugal in the future?

Chu Wei: [Yuan Wei dares to extort five million taels of greedy ink, there is no reason why he is so cooperative now that he is discovered, and he is bent on death, unless there is something worse than corruption behind this matter. 】

Yuan Wei's pupils dilated suddenly, and his kneeling figure trembled.

The emperor and the hundred officials all came back to their senses, they thought that Yuan Wei was so cooperative in order to protect the innocent family, and it turned out that it was to close the case as soon as possible so that it was convenient to cover up other crimes.

But what sin could be more terrible than the death penalty?

No, it won't, right?

Yuan Wei is not so bold, right?

The waiter of the Ministry of Works whispered to the waiter of the Criminal Department next door, "What will it be?" ”

The squire of the criminal department was silent, and only cut back and forth on his neck several times.

Everyone knows that one death sentence is enough, and a few knives mean that more than one person is going to die.

What is more terrible than the death penalty is the beheading of all the houses, connecting the nine clans, so the responsibility that Yuan Wei wants to hide is probably this.

Chu Wu also guessed this: [He won't rebel, right? 】

The system was about to answer, when Yuan Wei shook his voice and said, "The sinner doesn't dare!" ”

Chu Wu raised her head stubbornly, and the system also paid attention, why don't you dare?

The emperor glared at Yuan Wei as if he was about to eat him.

Yuan Wei knew that the emperor wanted to know more secrets, and he would never allow anyone to dismantle the truth that they could hear the dialogue between one person and one unification.

He kowtowed and hurriedly rounded the field, "The criminal begs the emperor to spare his family!" ”

The emperor looked at him with a meaningful look, "That depends on whether you are still deceiving." ”

"Lin You."

The commander of the Jinyi Guard: "The minister is here." ”

Emperor: "What else did you find?" ”

The commander of the Jinyi Guard did have some clues in his hands, but the time was too short, and he could not be tortured before the crime was determined, and he gained very little.

But now this situation, he can't say that he hasn't found it, right?

Thinking back to Chu Wu's speculation, Lin You sniped blindly: "Back to the emperor, three years ago, Yuan Wei's concubine and Lu entered the mansion of the third prince in less than a month, and gave birth to a daughter early, and now she is five months pregnant. Yuan Wei's extortion and embezzlement began three years ago, that is, before his concubine married into the mansion of the third prince. ”

Lin You only said the clues found by Jinyiwei, and did not say the inevitable connection between them, but which person in the scene did not have a seven-trick exquisite heart? As soon as you hear it, you know: so it is.

The emperor sneered: "Imperial hospital envoy, go and see if she is male or female in her belly." ”

"Commandment." The hospital envoy left in a hurry.

At present, the suspicion of the remnants of the previous dynasty on the three princes has not been clarified, if Yuan Wei really has such a mind, that is, to unite the remnants of the previous dynasty, intend to rebel, and restore the former dynasty.

The atmosphere in the court was like a stagnant, and no one dared to speak at this moment, for fear of angering the emperor.

At this time, I only heard a children's voice of "Wow-oh--".

System: [Sister Wu, can you tell if it's a man or a woman by taking the pulse?] Isn't this a humanoid B-ultrasound machine? 】

Chu Wu: [It is said that an experienced old lady doctor can see the gender from the pulse, and there is also the possibility of mistakes, which is not as powerful as the B-ultrasound machine. Do you know if it's a man or a woman? 】

System: [It's a boy.] 】

Emperor and Hundred Officials: Sure enough!

At the moment, the way they looked at Yuan Wei was almost like looking at a dead person.

Yuan Wei's face was like ashes, and his whole person was stiff.

The system shared the big melon he ate with Chu Wu: [Three years ago, Yuan Wei hooked up with the third prince and prepared to send him to the throne, not only from the dragon, but also as the ruler of the country. The third prince promised him that he would make his daughter the queen and the son born to his daughter the crown prince in the future, so Yuan Wei took the risk to help him collect money. 】

Chu Wu couldn't believe it: [The emperor is in his forties this year, and he is in his prime, and he himself has not enjoyed the taste of being an emperor enough, and there are several adult princes, but he does not establish a prince, it is so obvious. Did the third prince eat the bear's heart and leopard gall? Dare to talk about the establishment of the queen and the crown prince? 】

Baiguan: That's it!

If it weren't for the fact that the situation on the scene didn't allow it, they really had to give Chu Wu a round of applause, that's right! It's just to their hearts!

The emperor didn't understand: "Yuan Wei, my eldest prince guards the frontier and kills Beidi so much that he doesn't dare to attack, the second prince sends an envoy to the Southern Barbarians, and accepts the Southern Barbarians as a small subordinate country of Dasheng, the third prince has no real position, no military power, no merit, no mother, he is a complete hairy boy, what do you like about him?" ”

Chu Wu couldn't help but skin a little: [I like that he has a big butt and can give birth to a son. 】

In an instant, there was silence.

"Poof-" An official couldn't hold back a laugh, and then a series of slight laughter rang out from all over the court.

The emperor looked at the second prince, and from this angle he could only see the front, not the size of his son's buttocks.

Tsk, it's a pity.

The second prince stood in the front with a blank expression.

The gaze of the father in front of him has a strong penetrating nature, and the eyes of the officials in the rear are looking at his ass covertly, and they all want to know if his ass is not as big as the third prince, otherwise how could he have given birth to a daughter in the past few years?

He misses his eldest brother a little, if the eldest brother is here, today will be the two of them being watched together.

It's better for two people to lose face than for one person, at least to have a companion.

Yuan Wei's face was full of bitterness, and it was difficult to speak.

The system sighed and replied for him: [Yuan Wei actually meant to be a little trapped, he caught the third prince and his concubine on the spot and raped him in bed, seeing that the two of them had children, what else could he do? I had to marry my daughter. 】

Chu Wan: [That's true. The Dasheng Dynasty did not attach so much importance to chastity and encouraged widows to remarry, but it did not mean that they could lose their virginity before marriage. If this incident comes out, it will be a romantic affair for the third prince, and for Yuan Wei's daughter, her reputation will be ruined, and it will also affect the reputation of other girls in her Yuan family. There is no other way than to marry the daughter quickly and disguise the child as a premature birth. 】

System: [Isn't it okay to take the child?] 】

Chu Wu: [You know the identity of the third prince now, but Yuan Wei didn't know at that time, his daughter was pregnant with the emperor's grandson, how dare he do it? ] Besides, he was afraid that it would be difficult for him to give up the temptation of the third prince and the future prince, and he would fall into the trap as soon as he was greedy. 】

System: [Sister Wu, you are so powerful, I haven't said that you know that this is a set specially given to Yuan Wei by the third prince. 】

Yuan Wei was even more bitter, and he only came back to his taste later.

Now it seems that he can't see as clearly as a boudoir woman, maybe this is the authorities who are obsessed with bystanders, right?

Chu Wan: [Didn't the emperor say it just now? Actual position, military power, merit, and maternal family, none of the three princes, why did he surpass the first two princes to ascend to the throne? The emperor is in his prime, and even if he kills the eldest prince and the second prince, there will be other princes born later, so he has to accumulate his strength. 】

[Whether it is usurping the throne or rebelling, money and people are the minimum conditions, the household department is in charge of a country's finances, and it just so happens that he still has a daughter. A girl of this age is in the beginning of love, and she is very curious about love/love, and when she sees a good-looking man, she is still a prince, and she is gentle and caring, saying some good words, pulling small hands, kissing small mouths, and the atmosphere is ambiguous, isn't it deceived and deceived? 】

Men present: "......"

They have an answer that they especially want to know: how exactly did Chu Ping teach his daughter? How can you raise such a no-holding, taboo-free daughter?

Well, Chu Yu thought it was whispering to the system, but she didn't know that it was heard by all of them.

Chu Ping sighed and covered his face, can his daughter still get married?

System: [Sister Wang, you are so good! The facts are similar to what you guessed, but the third prince is a sea king, and there are not only the daughters of Hubu Shangshu in his fish pond, but also the daughters of several civil servants and military generals, some of whom hooked up, and some of whom have already slept, just waiting for the girl to be pregnant, and then find a good time to be discovered by the father, and marry someone home to slowly negotiate the conditions. 】

Chu Wu was silent.

Many of the civil and military generals present couldn't sit still, their daughters wouldn't have been deceived, right?

The imperial historians counted one by one, and their faces were all iron-blue, if it weren't for the fact that they were not suitable to speak out at this time, they would have to spray the three princes with blood!

Brute! Evil creature!

Chu Wan: [System, my sister Chu Shu was not deceived, right? ] 】

Chu Ping blocked his chest in one breath, wouldn't it?

He is the criminal department Langzhong of the fifth grade, maybe he is also in the fishpond of the third prince?

System: [It's not in the list of fish ponds, I'll take a look.] 】

In the end, it involves Chu Wu's sister, and the system can check it after spending a little melon: [Oh, the third prince thinks that your father has been an official for so many years and is only in the fifth grade, and he has no future, so he can't look down on your father. 】

Chu Wu breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: [The official still has this benefit, which is good. 】

Chu Ping, who didn't like the official: "......"

Yuan Wei, who was favored by the official university: "......"

Other Ministers: "......"

Just、Mixed feelings。
